Summer Vacation again!

Starting June 15, 2008, student-priests of PCF began disappearing one after another after successfully took their respective final exams. First to leave were Fr. Samuel Galias and Fr. Mel Braga - both headed east of the U.S. First timers to do summer pastoral exposure in the U.S. were Fr. Loloy Mahinay, Fr. Glenn Ruiz, Fr. Edwin Fontanilla, Fr. Jonathan COrsino, and Fr. John Gadon who would be the last student-priest to leave for the U.S. this summer. Fr. Ferdinand Lariosa prefered to sticking around here in Italy in a parish run by a Filipino parish priest. Fr. Raul Dael made up his mind to stay in Perugia for the whole summer on account of a very serious intention. Fr. Edison Escario was resigned to be in Florence to have more time for theological-biblical reflections. Meanwhile, the whole community of PCF remembers in their prayers Fr. Tony and his family and the soul of his sister who was succumbed to cancer sometime last week. It was also learned that Fr. Tony's relative was one of the vicitms perished in the recent sea tragedy near Romblon. Our prayers for you, Fr. Tony!
